Abstract
The antioxidant properties of roasted hulled barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were tested using in vitro assays, including the total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and DPPH, ABTS, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Hulled barley was roasted at 0, 170, 210, and 250°C for 20 min. The effects of the aqueous heating time at 100°C from 0 to 60 min and the blending ratio of barley and water from 1:2 to 1:5 in aqueous solutions were evaluated. p-Coumaric and ferulic acid contents were analyzed. The highest antioxidant activities were observed in 250°C roasted samples, although the p-coumaric and ferulic acid contents were high at 210°C. The highest antioxidant capacity in aqueous solution was observed at 60 min of extraction and in samples with a 1:2 blending ratio.
